25-years-old John Mikel Obi is said to be preparing for a March 31 marriage introduction ceremony to model, Sandra Uche Okagbue.

According to this week’s City People Magazine, the introduction will take place in Onitsha but the Chelsea midfielder reportedly denied the news. “I don’t understand where this is coming from. I know her. We’re friends, but we haven’t spoken in a long time and definitely not about marriage,” he said in an interview with Kick Off claiming to be ‘just friends’ with the model.

Okagbue was the Delta Soap Queen for three years and has been the face and model of the soap brand. Reports about their relationships has been on since last year.

Okagbue is said to be a princess from Ofala Okagbue family in Onitsha, Anambra State.
